^CProgramming by Nolan Martin
^COriginal design by Jay Wilbur
This month's educational piece is not only for the kids--it was
designed to be an eye-opener for all ages. The subject at hand
is trash and how we manage it.
We've taken this concept and built a fun-to-play game around it.
You play an environmentally conscious landfill manager. Unless
you can figure out what the incoming trash is and get it into
the correct bins, the materials will not be recycled. If the
trash is not separated and recycled it goes into your
landfill--and it's filling up fast. Once your landfill is full,
like most of the current landfills, it will be forced to
shut down. Then where will all the trash go?
We've included three levels of play. While the easy and the
hard levels will provide a challenge to gamers, we encourage
EVERYONE to have a peek at the reality level at least once. It
may be a bit dramatic, but it's the truth!
Folks, we put this game out for a reason. Something
MUST be done about the way we manage our trash. Gone are the
days of toss it in the can with everything else and let the
trashman deal with it. It's very important that we start taking
responsibility for the garbage we produce.
The bible says that the meek shall inherit the Earth. True as
that may be, the children, our next generation, will get to use
it next. If we, the adults, don't start doing something about
this growing problem, we'll be leaving our children with a
space-borne garbage scow. Kids, you don't want to live on a
trash heap, do you?
All the help you need to play the game is available by
selecting to see instructions at the beginning or pressing F1
during game play. We hope you have fun with this game, but
remember that we're dealing with a very serious subject.
